Default Eagle Wheels?

Last weekend I saw a really nice camaro that had rims I couldn't identify from a distance so I just had to go check them out. Once I got up to the car I see it said "Eagle" in the center of the wheels. I've never heard of this brand but I'm looking to buy a new set of rims and these rims were totally awesome. My question is, where can I find some info on these wheels or their website? I looked for them on ask jeeves but all these import wheels came up and I couldn't find them. Also anyone who has them do you like them? Any help will be appreciated.

I bet they looked something like this didn't they?



That's my old Camaro. I still have those wheels too, but have no use for them since they are 17x8's. My dad's probably gonna put them on something.

Really Medium Quasar Blue is a hard color to come by. I've seen a few local but they were gross looking. I really wish that car would've been an LT1 because I would've never sold it. I'll tell you what though for a 94 (other than the bumpers) it shined like a bitch.

I've had several sets of Eagle Alloys, they are a PITA to keep looking good. Affordable, but you have to keep them polished.

This man speaks the truth. Mine have been sitting for so long it will honestly take a act of Congress to get them looking shiney again. After first I figured since I got them used that the previous owner fucked up and took the clear off, but from speaking with other people who had them I guess none of the Eagle Alloy's came with a clearcoat.

These are all taken on my old camera, so the picture quality isn't that great.

As long as they have the style and size you want they are great becuase they are sooo cheap. I bought them for my 95 Formula, because I couldnt find anytihng nicer for anywhere near the price (was broke in school). Only problem is, in the style I got only 8" width was available. So now Im picking my TTIIs up this weekend. But you cant beat Eagles for the money. Just wish they had mine in 11" wide or atleast 9".
Mine are Eagle 185's....they are like the replacements for the model posted above.

My 95:

Hey FlyinLow89... nice looking ride!! I like those wheels and almost bought them except I had the same complaint as you... not wide enough. I ended up going with a set of 9.5" ZR1s all the way around.

Woah, nice rides~! I have a set of the 17x8" Eagle 077's with tires and I love them but, I'd be willing to part with them if anyone was serious. Two are brand new and 2 are a couple years old. PM or email me.

Here are mine, they are 275/40/17's all around. They look pretty good but I'm soon to get rid of them due to tire width. They only offer them in 17x8 I believe.......................
